REX STOCKTON SCHOLARSHIP

This scholarship is awarded to support an international student to attend the ASGW Conference. The scholarship honors the work and achievements of Rex Stockton, an ASGW Fellow and pioneer in the field of group work. Rex has taught and mentored many international students throughout his career. He has also worked extensively to promote group work in Africa, with a particular interest in HIV/AIDS counseling in Botswana.

The scholarship will be awarded to someone who:

1.  Is not a U.S. citizen -AND-
2.  Is currently attending graduate school in a group-work related profession anywhere in the world AND-
3.  Demonstrates an interest in the application of group work in an international setting.

In keeping with principles of social justice, this award is also open to individuals who have an interest and experience in group work but limited access to group work training. Thus, individuals who are not graduate students but who are engaged in significant group work (task, psychoeducational, counseling, or therapy groups) in a country in which graduate school options are limited or who are denied access to existing training opportunities in their countries due to political, religious, or social identity reasons are eligible for this award. Such applicants should describe their eligibility under these criteria in their written statement (see further instructions below).

The winner of the award will receive $1,000 to support the cost of attending the ASGW conference; the funds can be used for expenses related to conference travel and room and board. The winner will also receive complimentary conference registration.

Applicants must submit a written statement of no more than 750 words that:

1.  Identifies the university and degree program in which the applicant is currently enrolled. (If the applicant is engaged in significant group work in a country in which access to graduate school options is limited, the applicant should describe their educational background and current work situation, including their group work practice.)
2.  Includes a statement of the applicant's interest and/or experience in group work, including the application of group work in international settings, as well as what the applicant hopes to gain from attending the conference.

Applicants should also provide one letter of recommendation that describes the applicant's group work experience and potential. If the applicant is a graduate student, the letter should be from a professor, and should also confirm the applicant's status as a current graduate student. If the applicant is from a country in which access to graduate school options is limited, the letter can be from a supervisor, mentor, or other individuals who are knowledgeable about the applicant's work with groups.

Applicants should submit their name, mailing address, e-mail address, contact phone number, and the written statement to Dr. Priscilla Prasath, at priscilla.prasath at utsa.edu<mailto:priscilla.prasath at utsa.edu> by November 1st, 2021.
